Recently became aware of this bait which is in development. Can't seem to find a great deal of info on it. I take it the bug reference is something to do with the make up of the bait?

Anyone got any idea? Just curious as I'm a long term DNA user.

From what I've heard it's based on insect meal hence the name

Yes based on insect meal. Jason talks about it on one of the dna podcasts if you want to learn more

Hmmmmm..... I remember getting some bait from a guy called Danny Nalton at the start of the millenium. Had a company called natural Natural Extracts and one of his baits was based on insect and insect/meal.

Will locate the podcast and have a listen

Maple is my guess also. Saw it a couple of years ago and straight away said it would be probably be my bait of choice when it's released

Managed to get hold of 5kg and a bottle of spod syrup a couple months ago but not had chance to use it yet

I'd like to give it a go when released (just don't ask when it's being released ! lol) but due to it's colour I'm worried that the swans on my lake will be all over it in seconds.
I can't put the amount of boilie I would like in my lake as I would be feeding the f&ck*rs (shallow, weedy and crystal clear). Currently using a mix of S7 and SLK and I have to be careful where I put it.
